Illusion & Marc Jacobs

Description

Very versatile and quite easy project that you can wear in many different ways.

The sewing was pretty straight forward once I was done with grading the pattern down to a 34. The only tricky part is probably attaching the knit sleeves to the main coat but since it’s hidden, if it’s not perfect it won’t show.
